"The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 4 host is prior to tested version. It is,
therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TSSA-2026:1178 advisory.
Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 4 that fix the following vulnerabilities:
CVE-2026-63076:
Issue summary: OpenSSL CMP password based protection verification only checks whether the protectionAlg
parameter was not NULL and not its ASN.1 type, before treating it as a PBMParameter. A crafted message can
contain a parameter of a different type, which is then dereferenced as an invalid pointer. Impact summary:
A remote, unauthenticated attacker can crash an application acting as a CMP server that accepts PBM-
protected messages, or a CMP client talking to a malicious or intercepted CMP server, resulting in a
Denial of Service. CWE-476: NULL Pointer Dereference.
CVE-2026-63072:
OpenSSL CMS decryption sizes the key-unwrap output buffer based on querying the unwrapped key size, but
the AES-WRAP-PAD unwrap primitive can write and cleanse more bytes than that query reports, causing an
8-byte out-of-bounds heap write. An attacker who supplies a crafted CMS message can trigger a
deterministic 8-byte out-of-bounds heap write when the victim decrypts it with CMS_decrypt(), corrupting
the heap and typically resulting in a Denial of Service.
CVE-2026-54874:
Issue summary: Receiving a DTLS record for a future epoch while a handshake is in progress causes OpenSSL
to buffer far more memory than the record itself requires. A peer can use a small amount of network
traffic to make an OpenSSL DTLS endpoint retain a disproportionately large amount of memory, which may
lead to a Denial of Service.
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Tencent Linux security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
